Safety of equipment and personnel
An industrial accident occurs through work or in the workplace and causes minor to serious injury to a person operating or working on a machine. After presenting and defining the rules which govern safety, we shall focus on the machinery and the product technologies to meet customer requirements and comply with constraints.
The methodical approach described will help guarantee successful risk assessment. It will lead to the best-devised safety diagram and the best choice of components to perform the function.
This chapter contains a reminder of European regulations on safety of personnel and the environment, and IEC standards relating to machines and products.
